Atech CRS GP Confirms Full Line-Up

Story Highlights

Atech CRS GP has confirmed it's full 2011 line-up with the announcement
that Swiss racer Zoel Amberg will partner Nick Yelloly and Marlon
Stockinger in the GP3 Series.

The 18 year-old Formula Renault Champion underwent a successful test at
the end of last year and had his first test with Atech CRS GP last week
in Paul Ricard in preparation for the opening rounds of the 2011 series,
which take place in Istanbul in May.

We're very excited by the prospect of having Zoel join the team, as he looked very good at the tests last season.

Zoel graduated from karts to single-seaters in 2009 racing in the Italian
and Swiss Formula Renault Championships, finishing fourth and fifth
respectively. Last season he contested the Formula Renault 2.0 Middle
European Championship, lifting the title with six wins and four second
places. He also contested the newly-launched Formula Abarth series in
Italy taking victory at the opening round in Misano and an additional
eight points-scoring positions to finish seventh in the championship

The teenager, who now lives in Schachen (Switzerland), will join the
David Hayle-led team that was formed last year from a partnership between
Atech and Leicester-based CRS Racing. Atech CRS GP Team Principal Hayle
confirmed the signing, announcing: "We're very excited by the prospect
of having Zoel join the team, as he looked very good at the tests last
season. He joins us on a two-year programme, which adds stability to the
plan, and we expect the first season to be a learning year. However, that
does not mean we won't be trying to win right from the start."

Zoel added, "I am really happy to be part of the Atech CRS GP team and
the GP3 series. I worked well with the team and am pleased to have such
good support from them and my family and sponsors. I am looking forward
to my first season in GP3."

The Atech CRS GP team will undergo additional testing at Silverstone on
29-31 March, Barcelona 12-14 April and Monza 21 April prior to the
opening rounds, in Istanbul, over the weekend of 6-8 May.
